Cruxpearl Posted March 7, 2007 Share Helped Will out after his crash, he was psyched and quite a sight with blood flowing from his knees & filling his socks.Told him to load his bike & catch a ride with team car, but he rode away on his bike... knew that he would not be allowed to continue with the holes in his knees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willpower Posted March 7, 2007 Share Well today was an easy ride through to Stellenbosch, with the biggest challenge being avoiding the trucks in the right hand gutter. The pace up helshoogte was fairly reasonable the first couple of times, then started hotting up on lap three. On the third descent I rode over a little bump in the middle of a straight section... The trouble is you can't really see bumps like this especially in the shadows at 60 km/h. I lost my handlebar and ended up ripping some nasty holes in my knees. Carinus certainly came up with some interesting routes this year. Not sure what was wrong with the old helshoogte lap from a few years ago??
